####14. Consider the change in oxidation state of bromine corresponding to different emf values as shown in the diagram below :
[2018]
Then the species undergoing disproportionation is
(a)
(b)
(c)
(d)
Show Answer
Solution:
- (c) Calculate
corresponding to each compound undergoing disproportionation reaction. The reaction for which comes out is spontaneous.
Reaction in (d) involves comproportionation or synproportionation. When two reactants, each containing the same element but with a different oxidation number, form a product in which the element involved reach the same oxidation number.
It is opposite to disproportionation.

i.e. maximum change in oxidation number is observed in
